Best Answer

People like koalas for any of a number of reasons:

  • Koalas vaguely resemble teddy bears, which is why they are often wrongly called 'koala bears'.
  • In some animal sanctuaries, people are able to hold koalas. This means they have the opportunity to pet the koalas' soft, woolly fur, and appreciate the docility and gentleness of these creatures (under the right circumstances, as they can be aggressive).
  • Koalas are uniquely Australian, and regarded as a national icon.

Koala fur is no longer used for toys. It is illegal to hunt or kill koalas, so any fur on toys is now synthetic. Koalas were hunted almost to extinction in the early twentieth century because they were prized for their fur, particularly in America.
